I think in sixth grade I named my Alto Sax Sparkie because I got static shocks alot from it that year. It doesn't have a name anymore. If anyone knows the Japanese word for "abandonment" I'd probably name it that. :heh:

You guys name and talk to your instruments....? Okayy.....that's sounds....ineteresting. Maybe I should name my piano. Let's see....what should I name a piano? When I first got my flute I kept calling it 'this stupid thing' because it wouldn't make any noise... but I don't think that counts.

I don't think it's strange to name your instruments. There was this French book I read a long time ago, concerning this young violinist who was a prodigy on the violin. She named her violin, because she had a strong connection to it.

I don't have a name yet for my piano . . perhaps Old Faithful? Since it's been around since I was little?

July 7th, 2006, 05:41 pm
I don't really have a name for my clarinet. Though several times, my friends and former high school band mates caught me baby talking to it lol.

"My baby", "My little clarinety"..etc.

And my alto sax I've always called "it" or "thing" (usually with a hint of disgust in my voice). We didn't have a very good relationship...

"YARGH! WHY DON"T YOU MAKE ANY SOUND!?!?!?!?!"

Trumpet(Yamaha)
"The Equalizer" (I use it to get revenge on my sister)

Violin(Stradivari, nah just kiddin')
"Queen of Ice"

Oboe
"Argh! If you weren't school property, it put you in a meat grinder you stupid *****!!!!"

Name: Aargh, I hate bass cleft! (I stopped taking lessons about a year ago, now I just teach myself, but gradually, I'm starting to forget how to read bass cleft)

Oh yeah, I also named my violin mute "Gustav" (after Holst, and because the name is just so cool)

my piano actually doesn't have a name - besides "Why are you detuned again???"..
my guitar and my three flutes don't have any names, either..
but i call my violoncello "meine Kleine". that's german and means something like "My little one" or "My little girl". that sometimes sounds a bit funny because a cello really isn't a small instrument... my one's nearly as "tall" as me :D

I think the thread if for the name of your instrument not what instrument you play.

It's more or less like giving your instrument a pet name~

My elementary flute : Squeaky ('cause I couldn't hit the high notes if my life depended on it . The name's actually longer , but I don't wanna stick profanity in here XD)

High school flute : Noir (As in 'black' in french . Yep , it's that rusty . )

Piano : Little Mischief (I actually didn't name my piano until last year , even though I had this piano for all my life . I heard this name from a fanfic , & fell in love with this name . Though.. the name was originally for an electric violin .)

My violin certainly has, I call her (it's a she) Manon which is a French name. Maybe this has just to do with my synaesthesia but I know others who have instruments with names as well.

A friend of mine has named her piano Jinari which means "wisdom of the heart" and is sanskrit, I believe.

Anyone else?

~*Kjesta*~


you guys name your instruments *shock*

My first thought when reading this:

You don't name your instrument :o How can one leave their instrument nameless?

instrument: violin
name: Manon (a French girl's name - Manon is definitely female!)

Flute: faggot-tube. I got if for $700 at a music store sale...it's brand name is gemeinhardt (sp?), and it pretty much sucks.

Piano: faggot-box. I got if for $600 at a garage sale...it's brand name is quidoz, and it pretty much sucks.
